Notice of absence from arqios
Be kind….
…. words don’t rewind
Be kind….
…. words don’t rewind
In the quiet hum of a mundane day,
A fluff-filled presence makes its way,
Soft fur, a comforting array,
My beloved pet, my heart's ballet.
Paws that patter, a rhythmic beat,
A tail that swishes in playful greet,
The day feels dull, the hours creep,
Yet here’s a bond, so strong and sweet.
A brush of fur, a gentle nudge,
Whiskers twitch, and eyes that judge,
A visceral bond in this embrace,
In fur and love, we find our place.
In that moment, so stark and clear,
The world outside may disappear,
A shared breath, a quiet cheer,
In fuzzy touch, the world draws near.
With each caress, the mundane fades,
In fur’s texture a fondness wades,
My day transformed, in simple ways,
By my pet’s soft, hirsute displays.

A lovely writing .. it really speaks of the friendly warm nature of a cat . A cat comes to our house most days , sometimes she spends hours here .. their such a nice presence
I love cats
As do I. Thanks kindly. 🙏🏻
Creatures can give a great deal of comfort simply by their presence. There is something reassuring about another being close by. Lovely poem Cryptic
Thanks Soren 🙏🏻
A fine write A. Do you know Fido, my talking, reading dog?! lol.
We’ve made acquaintance some time ago. Hi, Fido! 👋🏻
although much more of a dog kinda guy .. steady Dave.. I can see, sniff, feel and hear where you might be coming from .. I came close to tasting it too in Vietnam yonks ago, but I put my foot down with a firm hand and legged it .. you may call me a pussy but I can hack it ..
Sometimes it’s best not to get involved, to survive.
Excellent write
Thanks!
You're welcome
I am an animal lover in general. Love me my cats and dogs! I have both currently. My dog is bigger than a lapdog, but try telling her that! LOL! A great write my friend! 🌹👏
Ah, the epitome of the word “pet!” thanks Tristan 🙏🏻
Indeed! You are welcome!
Where would we be without our pets? I have both a cat and a dog. I love them both the same, but my cat is independent and the dog is very clingy. Your stanzas are nicely rhymed and remind me of all the comfort they both give. They are family. A lovely read.
That they are! Thanks Cassie 🙏🏻
Wonderful words arqios, pets can bring such peace and joy to our lives.
Andy
